Glamour model and pinup girl Paige Turner thinks she's landed a cushy gig as the star of an art exhibit. All she has to do is sit in a booth all evening to get paid - she doesn't even have to interact with the patrons. Talk about money for nothing! But what does the artist mean when she calls the booth a Compression Chamber...?

Contains shrinking process, shrinking out of clothes, public humiliation. Contains DOC, EPUB, and PDF formats, as well as a separate cover image. Appx 9000 words.

EXCERPT
Soon, Abby stopped by the exhibit and smiled brightly at Paige. “Hey! How’s it going in there?”
Paige yawned pointedly. “Boring. And I don’t think the illusion is working--none of the people who’ve looked at my exhibit seem like they noticed anything happening.”
“Really?” Abby looked puzzled. She pressed the button, watching Paige closely.
Paige felt the curious tingle again, and she shivered. “Ooh. I keep feeling this weird tingly feeling, but otherwise, yeah, doesn’t seem like much is happening.”
Abby smiled enigmatically. “Oh, I don’t know. I think it’s working just fine.”
“Okay…?” Paige cocked an eyebrow skeptically. She fidgeted on the stool again. “If you say so.”
“I’ll leave you to it, Paige. I’ll be back to check on you again later.” Abby walked away, still smiling.
“Weirdo,” Paige muttered. She smoothed out her skirt again. She noticed her bustier had also shifted slightly out of place; scowling, she adjusted it, wondering why it didn’t seem to want to stay in place properly. While she was looking down at herself, she felt another tingle. She glanced up to see a young girl with curly red hair, perhaps ten years old, pressing the button.
“What does this do?” the girl asked.
“It’s supposed to create an illusion, I think,” Paige replied noncommittally. She looked back down and returned her attention to her bustier, but she soon felt another tingle, and then another. “Hey!”
“Aw, man. It’s not working,” the girl whined.
She hit the button again, sending another tingle shooting down Paige’s spine. This was followed by another sensation--the feeling of her hair tumbling down her back and shoulders. “What the hell?” Paige asked, grabbing her jet-black tresses in disbelief. “How did that happen?” She could feel the bow and hairpins she’d used to hold it up tangled in her locks. It was as if her hairstyle had spontaneously fallen apart. Paige held a hairpin up to her face, staring at it in confusion.
“Oh, your hair changed! That was kinda cool,” the girl said. She pressed the button again.
This time, in addition to the tingle, Paige felt a bizarre sensation of movement in her hand, as if the hairpin had suddenly come alive and stretched out between her fingers. She dropped it as if she’d been shocked, staring down at the pin where it fell on the floor. She was momentarily struck by the odd notion that the floor seemed farther away than it should.
“Aw. It doesn’t do anything else? Bor-ing,” the girl grumbled, turning and walking away.
Paige climbed down from the stool to retrieve the hairpin--or tried to. She misjudged the distance, and her platform shoes hit the floor of the booth with a loud thwack. She nearly lost her balance, wobbling unsteadily in her shoes, and she felt something brush against her legs with a rush of air. She grabbed the stool to steady herself and looked down to see what it was. Paige was mortified when she realized that her skirt had fallen off her hips and plunged to the floor.

OK, that's twice I can recall in recent memory that you had platform shoes on a character. But did you describe the outfit before introducing them this time? There was no real way to visualize Liz's outfit in Interview, but at that point in the story, that wasn't the point.

Premise is interesting: an interactive shrinking process as an art exhibit. I will pick it up. I was not disappointed with Interview.

As an aside, I would really research female fashion trends. Most writers I see dress up their women like 90's grunge teenagers. If I see another pair of sneakers on a character, I will gag.

[Doll-Elf]

But sneakers are fashionable for women. Atleast casually. Especially if they are Converse. I prefer the simple black and white while my sister loves the pink and the other likes yellow. Can't be walking around in Sergio Rossi or Vusumok all day. Then again, I've never seen any of us deny a pair of Prada...

If anything, I would love to see some more outrageous outfits myself. Less casual but not pure bondage or skyrim slut mod material.

[LK]

Sure, but when I see women as clothed by male fetish writers, it is painfully obvious they have no insight or they are dressing them like a teenager.

Leather booties are all the fucking rage in urban settings, can't deny Converses popularity, but what I see most often is like the writer has only ever been to a Payless Shoe Store.

[LK]

Like flip through a Vogue or something FFS.

OK, rant over.

[Doll-Elf]

No, rant on. I completely agree. It's either some super fetisised outfit that would never be meant for public, despite it being there, or like they are only remembering what fashion their high school crush wore back in 1999. I would even like to see a classic 50s scene with their outfits if it meant we got away from every character always wearing jeans or pantsuits. If I wanted pantsuits, I would look to the former president- *stops before comment attacked for political joke* As I write this, there is probably some writer puting in red plaid shirts as an outfit because those seem to be super popular with the walmart and target crowd. Yay for average...

[LK]

I get not everyone is here for those details but hyper-focus on minute changes in sensory perception and experience that would be beyond the capacity of any human to recognize or verbalize while skipping the work on the other details shows where the writer's head is at.

But, hey, these aren't about realism.

[Doll-Elf]

If I was shrinking, and I would be having a blast normally, I would love focus on how the clothes were different. How my belt had to be sinched instead of whatever I wore always instantly falling down to give a draft. It's always an unexpected draft... As if we don't spen out time on our clothes the most, tugging them back up or pulling down. Tube tops and strapless dresses are always wanting to casually rest on our hips if they could. And don't be me started on the belts who were formerly known as strapless bras. If more so, I think the casual input of their outfit is important. From earrings and bracelets to what happens to their nail polish and contacts. Things you forget but would be obvious when growing or shrinking. And by casual, I mean that it's slipped in here and there, not all at once. This isn't a character profile you read before talking to them. This is a person and you notice things at different times. Lips, hair, and eyes are seen first. Normally.

[qzar9999]

Actually, the person who requested this story picked out Paige's outfit. Because of that, I'm very careful to describe it ahead of time.

And I had to go back and reread Interview to see what you were talking about. You're right that I didn't describe them ahead of time, and also that that wasn't really the point by then, lol. I just liked imagining the visual and sound that a chunky platform shoe would make falling off of a pair of shrinking feet and hitting the floor, so I tossed it in.

I am glad to see that people seemed to like Interview. Maybe it'll get a sequel someday.

Oh, btw, generally when I choose outfits for my female characters, I either Google female outfits and describe one of the images that catches my eye, or I base it on something my wife wears. I only pick specific outfits if there's a plot or request reason for it.

[Doll-Elf]

On another note, I should attempt my way at writing again but most of my works are Roleplays. If I could simply record them and put them up I would. But the as is work is normally unfinished or just a bit silly to place down. Mostly because I'm dealing with non process fans. So, if anyone wants to do an RP and get featured in a story, send me a message.

[qzar9999]

I don't address nail polish, usually, because I don't often think about my characters wearing it...and when I do, I find it hard to fit in a bit about it flaking off without it feeling out of place. That may be personal preference talking. Maybe I'll keep it in mind as a detail in my next eBook.

And I don't write about contacts because *ouch*. Lol

[Doll-Elf]

Less ouch. They would just become uncomfortable and then one would easily use their fingers to take them out. As one who wears them, taking contacts out is the easiest thing in the world.
